Property Development and Tax - Free E-book

POSTED: 03 September 2021

Developing property is a very rewarding exercise, but there is a lot to consider and understand if you are going to get it right.

Not only do you need to identify if a site can physically be developed, what you are legally permitted to do with it, and whether it is financially viable, you need to understand the tax involved. I get many questions from clients about how development taxes work because it is a complex area, so I decided to write an e-book to provide some explanation.

This e-book covers some commonly asked questions and is a guide to help you identify the taxes that may apply to your situation. But that’s all it is – a guide. You should always seek expert professional advice about development tax, as there are many permutations, exceptions, and little-known areas of tax law that may apply.

The Property Development and Tax e-book is free for you to download - click here.

If you have any questions around development tax, please contact the team at GRA – we would be very happy to help you.

Testimonials

I would like to say thank you for the opportunity for allowing me to come to the property school at Gilligan Rowe + Associates. Im in my early stages of becoming a property investor in New Zealand and to able to come to the property school has enabled to me gain very valuable information and knowledge which will help me be successful in property investing. The property school itself is one like no other because there is so much value given and from experts that practise what they are teaching. This in property school was one of the main highlights because being able to meet experts through the property school was my first time and gave me more confidence in general about property investment. Having combined reading the books (Property 101, Tax structures 101) at home and attending property school, the breath of valuable information and knowledge I have attained is substantial. - Tesfalidet, December 2019
